True Non Contact Mode

For optimal performance with our AFM systems please request a quote from Park Systems. Mounted cantilevers are additionally tested. All probes that are not listed here from Nanosensors™, Nanotools GmbH, Nanoworld AG, BudgetSensors, Olympus Corp., MikroMasch, Applied Nano Structures, Inc. are possible to order from our probe store. Probes from other manufacturers also can be possible to order upon request for quotation. The peformance of probes ordered from other sources are not guaranteed.

The reflex coating is an approximately 30 nm thick aluminum coating on the detector side of the cantilever which enhances the reflectivity of the laser beam by a factor of about 2.5. Furthermore it prevents light from interfering within the cantilever. The virtually stress-free coating is bending the cantilever less than 3.5% of the cantilever length.

These tips are designed for non-contact or tapping mode imaging. They feature a tetrahedral tip that protrudes from the very end of the cantilever allowing it to be the only probe to offer real tip visibility from the top even if the probe is tilted.
